'the phoenix rises up from the ground, and all these wars are over'

i don't know anyone.

talked with giba yesterday about asian games selection.

option 1. i could try for the radial in doha. but apparently i'll need to sail full rig at three regattas (asia pac, kiel, enoshima) to have a go at selection. i guess i don't really mind a bigger sail, but it's the latter two races that worry me - i really don't think i have a chance in wind above 8 knots.

up till now i still don't see the sense in having to qualify with a larger sail in overpowering winds. even worse, mark robinson hinted that winter in doha might bring even lighter wind then we saw a few weeks ago.

so...

option 2. sail the 4.7.

just that the selection policy isn't out yet. so i don't know what will happen. we may well hold our trials in the byte. (!!!)

as of now, i told him tentatively i'll aim for 4.7 in december. but i disagreed with him on one point, about maintaining weight - 4.7 is not the long term goal. hypertrophy it is.

but it'll mean 4 times gym a week - and sch ends at 440 on three days!

it's all rather complex eh.

and i've realised now that quite a few people have moved up into the full rig over the last two weeks... cai, poh, elliot, shaun, and most surprisingly calvin.

"what's the point?"

flat out in 6 knots is just crazy. maybe i just have a phobia of moving up.


i'm beginning to get sick of explaining 101 times how i got more letters than numbers on the scoreboard in asc.



the weather hasn't been altogether kind to me lately.

. . .

reading garfield on friday morning. "even his imagination is desperate."

what's with imaginary numbers? why come up with numbers you can't comprehend? lol. jon must have invented them.

i can't keep up with school.

-somewhere a clock is ticking.
